1.1 abs 2:
1.123 jmc 3: This file (UPDATING) is intended to be a brief reference to recent
4: changes that might cause problems in the build process, and a guide for
5: what to do if something doesn't work.
1.1 abs 6:
1.123 jmc 7: For a more detailed description of the recommended way to build NetBSD
8: using build.sh, see the BUILDING file.
9:
10: Note that much of the advice in this UPDATING file was written before
11: build.sh existed. Nevertheless, the advice here may be useful for
12: working around specific problems with build.sh.

1.230 tls 18:
1.233 joerg 19: 20120207:
1.234 ! spz 20: Default for MKCATPAGES changed to NO. Update builds will fail
1.233 joerg 21: unless DESTDIR is cleaned manually.
22:
1.232 christos 23: 20111227:
24: If you built between 20111225 and 20111227 you need to remove
25: /usr/lib/libpam.so.4* and /usr/lib/security/*.so.4, since the
26: bump has been reverted.
27:
1.231 tls 28: 20111125:
29: The "rnd" pseudodevice has been added to sys/conf/std, which
30: means it should no longer be explicitly listed in kernel
31: configuration files. The line "pseudo-device rnd" should be
32: removed from any custom kernel config files users may have.
33:
1.230 tls 34: 20111119:
35: A problem with the datastructures used by the rndctl(8)
36: utility (pointers in datastructures in an array, making 32->64
37: bit compatibility very painful) has been fixed in a
38: non-backwards-compatible way. If you replace your kernel,
39: replace your rndctl executable too.
40:
1.229 jym 41: 20111001:
42: the prop_*_send_syscall() functions from proplib(3) have been
43: changed and their new version is not backward compatible with the old
44: one. So ensure that all consumers of these functions (currently:
45: quota2 code and its tests) are updated together with the new lib.
46:
1.228 mrg 47: 20110817:
48: sparc has been changed to use GCC 4.5.3, so any objdir or
49: DESTDIR for them should be deleted before updating.
50:
1.227 riastrad 51: 20110806:
52: i386 and amd64 have been changed to use GCC 4.5.3, so any
53: objdir or DESTDIR for them should be deleted before updating.
54:
1.226 mrg 55: 20110805:
56: The update to GCC 4.5.3 requires a non-trivial portion of
57: the tree to be cleaned. Best to delete both objdir and
58: DESTDIR before running this update. So far, only the
59: sparc64, mips and powerpc platforms have changed.
60:
1.225 matt 61: 20110803:
62: The layout of external/public-domain/xz has changed. To do an
63: update build you will have to remove the contents of the OBJDIR
64: for external/public-domain/xz/bin by hand as the xz entry there
65: is now a directory.
66:
1.223 joerg 67: 20110410:
1.224 dholland 68: The configuration of src/tools/gcc has changed. To do an
69: update build you have to clean both tools/binutils and
70: tools/gcc by hand.
1.223 joerg 71:
1.222 plunky 72: 20110328:
73: Building the Xorg binary was moved into a subdirectory to fix
74: ordering issues with "make all". It may be necessary to remove
75: the OBJDIR for external/mit/xorg/server/xorg-server/hw/xfree86
76: if your update build fails, as the "Xorg" entry there is now a
77: directory.
78:
1.220 joerg 79: 20110121:
1.221 lukem 80: Assembler files no longer use -traditional-cpp. This can break
1.220 joerg 81: the build of individual parts of the tree. This is handled
82: correctly by build.sh. Manual builds have to update /usr/share/mk
83: and re-run config(1) for any kernel configurations as needed.
1.218 joerg 84:
1.217 jruoho 85: 20101217:
86: The tcpdump(8) program was changed to drop privileges and chroot(2)
87: by default. It may be necessary to manually update passwd(5) and
88: group(5) in order to make the program work with existing setups.
89:
1.216 christos 90: 20101125:
91: The latest changes to setenv(3) dissallow setting environment
92: variables with names that contain '='. Revision 1.18 of env.c
93: assumed that this was allowed. Installing a new libc with an
94: old copy of /usr/bin/env causes env x=1 printenv | grep x= to
95: break which affects the autoconf tests for dependency finding,
96: so building gcc will end up printing:
97: checking dependency style of gcc... none
98: configure: error: no usable dependency style found
99: Fix it by rebuilding and re-installing env.
1.138 lukem 100:
1.215 mrg 101: 20101119:
102: Recent Xorg updates in xsrc/external/mit/ may cause various build
103: or run-time problems. Delete your entire DESTDIR and OBJDIR if you
104: have any build problems with xsrc, or problems with mismatched
105: versions between xorg-server and drivers.
106:
1.213 jmmv 107: 20100604:
108: The update of ATF to 0.9 causes old tests written in shell to fail
109: unless they are rebuilt. If you are building with MKUPDATE=yes,
110: you need to clean the src/external/bsd/atf/tests/ and the src/tests/
111: trees by hand.
112:
1.211 tnozaki 113: 20100522:
1.212 mrg 114: Recent Xorg updates in xsrc/external/mit/ will cause various build
115: problems. Delete your entire DESTDIR and OBJDIR if you have any
116: build problems with xsrc.
117:
118: 20100522:
1.211 tnozaki 119: private section of <ctype.h> was splitted, and now mklocale(1)
1.214 dholland 120: include ctype_local.h, so you have to make cleandir in tools/mklocale.
1.211 tnozaki 121:
1.210 christos 122: 20100520:
123: The location of the xkb compiled descriptions has changed. Please
124: remove usr/X11R7/lib/X11/xkb/compiled from your $DESTDIR.
125:
1.209 njoly 126: 20100222:
127: The shared objects file extension has been changed from .so to
128: .pico, in order to avoid conflicts with shared libraries names
129: libXX.so. All now stale regular .so files can be removed from
130: your object directories.
131:
1.208 roy 132: 20100204:
133: The termcap database has been removed from the sources,
134: but has not been marked obsolete so it is not removed
135: from the system when upgrading.
136: As such, you will need to remove them from your object
137: and destination directories.
138:
1.203 dyoung 139: 20091101:
1.205 dholland 140: After updating, it may be necessary to make the 'cleandir'
141: target in src/tools/yacc/ and in src/usr.bin/yacc/ before a
142: 'build.sh -u tools' or 'build.sh -u distribution'. Ditto
143: src/tools/lex/ and src/usr.bin/lex/.
1.203 dyoung 144:
1.202 mrg 145: 20091001:
1.206 dholland 146: On amd64 you must rebuild tools (to get the new binutils)
147: before building a kernel, or the build fails on cpufunc.S.
148:
149: 20091001:
1.202 mrg 150: An error will create a ./usr/X11R7/lib/X11/xkb/compiled/xkb
151: symlink, failing the build. Delete the link, and the subdir
152: it is in, and retry your build.
153:
1.201 dsl 154: 20090718:
155: libc build changed so that strchr() provides the extra entry
156: point for index(). Update build of libc.a (and libc_pic.a)
157: may fail because the archive contains the unwanted index.o.
158: (Similarly for strrchr() and rindex().)
159:
1.198 mrg 160: 20090709:
161: Native Xorg was upgraded again. Builds will probably fail again
162: without a clean objdir, at least for src/external/mit/xorg.
163:
1.197 mrg 164: 20090616:
165: Native Xorg was upgraded. Builds will need a clean objdir for
166: src/external/mit/xorg. Upgrading a system from sets will not
167: work properly yet as the /usr/X11R7/lib/X11/xkb/symbols/pc
168: subdirectory has been changed into a file, and this needs to
169: be manually "rm -r"'ed before installing xbase.tgz.
170:
1.195 perry 171: 20090501:
172: Several new functions were added to string.h/libc, and this
173: can cause autoconf problems during the tool build for people
174: who fail to clean out their tools objects properly. If you
175: note messages about stpcpy, stpncpy or strnlen accompanying a
176: failure during the tool build, clean out all your tools
177: objects and start again.
178:
1.194 mrg 179: 20090325:
180: The i386 port was switched to i486 default toolchain. This requires
181: cleaning your src/tools directory and $TOOLDIR and rebuilding them.
182:
1.192 skrll 183: 20090126:
1.207 mbalmer 184: The __posix_fadvise50 system call changed assembly stub type. You
185: need to 'rm -f __posix_fadvise50.*' in the libc build directory
186: to avoid using the old assembly stub.
1.192 skrll 187:
1.191 joerg 188: 20090202:
189: pkg_install now depends on the pkgdb cache for automatic conflict
190: detection. It is recommented to rebuild the cache with
191: ``pkg_admin rebuild''.
192:
1.184 christos 193: 20090110:
194: time_t and dev_t have been bumped to 64 bit quantities. To upgrade:
195: 1. Make sure your kernel has COMPAT_50 in it. Build and install.
1.188 christos 196: This is needed even in the MODULAR kernel because there is
197: conditionally compiled code in rtsock.c.
1.184 christos 198: 2. make sure build.sh completes and the binaries in a chroot work
199: before installing.
200: 3. If you don't use build.sh and you build directly to root, and
1.187 dholland 201: your build breaks in the middle, don't despair. Make sure headers
1.184 christos 202: are installed properly, and start building libraries first libc
203: and libutil, install them and then continue building all the
204: libraries in src/lib and src/gnu/lib and install them. Once
205: the new libraries are installed, you can restart the build.
206: 4. If you compile packages and you notice link time warnings,
1.189 hubertf 207: rebuild the required packages to update their shared libraries.
208: Any package you rebuild will require rebuilding all the packages
209: that depend on it.
1.186 christos 210: 5. Next time you run pwd_mkdb with the new binary, the file
211: will be upgraded and it will not be backwards compatible.
1.190 apb 212: 6. The utmpx/wtmpx files (/var/run/utmpx and /var/log/wtmpx, see
213: lastlogx(5)) have been versioned, and there is a heuristic
214: for utmp. You are better off removing the old files after
215: upgrading. The automated clearing of /var/run during
216: boot, and the automated rotating of files in /var/log by
217: newsyslog(8), may mean that you do not have to remove the
218: files manually.
219: 7. The optional accounting file (/var/account/acct, see
220: accton(8)) has not been versioned, and will need to be
221: removed. The automatic rotation of the accounting file by
222: /etc/daily limits the bad consequences of failure to remove
223: the file.
1.196 dholland 224: 8. Application software that writes time_t to binary files on
225: disk will break or need attention. Most notably: if you are
226: using PostgreSQL < 8.4, you need to dump your databases,
227: rebuild PostgreSQL with the new time_t, then restore.
1.185 jmcneill 228:
1.183 pgoyette 229: 20081219:
230: config(1) has been updated, and one of the files it creates -
231: swapnetbsd.o - has changed format. You need to rebuild config
232: (done automatically by build.sh) and then you need to rerun
233: config on all kernel configuration files before rebuilding those
234: kernels.
235:
1.181 cube 236: 20081205:
237: If you build with MKX11=no, you should remove /etc/rc.d/xdm and
238: /etc/rc.d/xfs from DESTDIR because those files were moved to the xetc
239: set and will appear as extra files for MKX11=no update builds.
1.178 lukem 240:
1.179 tsutsui 241: 20081122:
1.182 tsutsui 242: On i386, various kernel options(4) in GENERIC including
1.180 wiz 243: file systems have been disabled and moved into kernel modules.
244: Before trying a new GENERIC kernel, you have to prepare the
1.179 tsutsui 245: following files as well as a new GENERIC kernel:
246:
247: - build and install kernel modules from src/sys/modules
248:
249: - install the latest bootloader, which will load a module
1.180 wiz 250: for the file system from which the kernel is loaded automatically
1.179 tsutsui 251:
1.180 wiz 252: If you have to load your kernel from a file system which is not of
253: the same type as the root file system, you have to load the necessary
254: file system module manually on the boot prompt or in the boot.cfg file.
1.179 tsutsui 255:
1.178 lukem 256: 20080827:
257: If you built and installed a libc from sources between
258: 2008/08/20 and 2008/08/26 you got a broken strtouq(3)
259: which results in false errors reported by lint(1).
260: Since this breaks the libc build itself, manual help is
1.180 wiz 261: needed -- lint must be disabled temporarily, e.g.:
1.178 lukem 262: $ (cd lib/libc && make MKLINT=no dependall install)
263:
1.177 christos 264: 20080813:
265: MKDEBUG build was broken because the .depend files did not know
266: about .go files. You need to remove all .depend files and rebuild.
267:
1.200 dholland 268: 20080802:
269: A regression in binary compatibility for pthread_mutex_t has
270: been fixed. Unfortunately, the price is breaking compatibility
271: for -current.
272:
273: Threaded programs (using libpthread) and C++ programs (using
274: libstdc++) compiled after 20070907 and before 20080802 need to
275: be recompiled.
276:
277: One way to find affected pkgsrc packages:
278:
279: $ grep REQUIRES=/usr/lib/libpthread /var/db/pkg/*/+BUILD_INFO
280: $ grep REQUIRES=/usr/lib/libstdc++ /var/db/pkg/*/+BUILD_INFO
281:
1.175 simonb 282: 20080731:
283: WAPBL (metadata journaling support) has been added, but at this
284: time isn't backwards compatible with pre-WAPBL aware kernels
285: and userland (fsck_ffs in particular). Please make sure you
286: don't use a journaled filesystem with an older kernel/userland,
1.176 simonb 287: especially an uncleanly mounted journaled filesystem. WAPBL
288: also requires the super block to be in the UFS2 format. You
289: can use fsck_ffs -c 4 to update the superblock format.
1.175 simonb 290:
1.174 lukem 291: 20080721:
292: Assembler warnings are now fatal if $WARNS>0 and $NOGCCERROR
293: isn't defined.
294:
1.173 freza 295: 20080531:
296: The ioctl number of DRVSUSPENDDEV command on /dev/drvctl changed
297: from 125 (conflicted with DRVCTLCOMMAND) to 129. The drvctl(8)
298: utility needs to be rebuilt and reinstalled as older binaries
299: won't work correctly. The following sequence of commands:
300:
301: $ (cd sys/sys/ && nbmake-$arch includes)
302: $ (cd sbin/drvctl/ && nbmake-$arch clean)
303: $ (cd sbin/drvctl/ && nbmake-$arch all)
304:
305: leaves new drvctl utility in sbin/drvctl build directory.
306:
1.172 lukem 307: 20080503:
308: The <bsd.lib.mk> variable MKPRIVATELIB was renamed to LIBISPRIVATE.
309:
1.171 he 310: 20080521:
311: For a while, unprivileged UPDATE builds would fail to
312: succeed at the checkflist stage, complaining that
313: ${DESTDIR}/stand/<arch>/ did not exist. A fix for this
314: problem was committed to share/mk/bsd.kmodule.mk, revision 1.9.
315: If you already hit this problem, update the .mk file,
316: remove ${DESTDIR}/stand/<arch>, and re-run the build.
317:
1.174 lukem 318: 20080303:
319: Linker warnings are now fatal if $WARNS>0.
320:
1.170 christos 321: 20080126:
322: The posix_fadvise system call has been changed from an assembly
323: stub, to a c file that calls an assembly stub. You need to
324: 'rm -f posix_fadvise.* .depend' in the libc build directory to
325: avoid using the old assembly stub.
326:
1.168 joerg 327: 20071209:
328: The acpiec(4) driver has been split into two attachments. If you
329: get ACPI errors before the attachment, please update your kernel
1.169 wiz 330: configuration file appropriately or see GENERIC for more details.
1.168 joerg 331:
1.166 xtraeme 332: 20071115:
333: The it(4) driver has been renamed to itesio(4) and the old port
334: argument specified in the kernel configuration file is not valid
335: anymore. The itesio(4) driver now uses the Super I/O address port
336: rather than the EC address port. Please update your kernel
1.167 wiz 337: configuration file appropriately or see GENERIC for more details.
1.166 xtraeme 338:
1.165 jmmv 339: 20071028:
340: The pccons(4) driver has been removed from the NetBSD/shark port.
341: You need to update any custom kernel configuration file you have
342: to remove any references to pccons (which includes removing the
343: now useless XSERVER option) and replace them with the correct
344: entries for the wscons driver. See the GENERIC configuration file
345: for more details.
346:
1.164 gdt 347: 20070913:
348: A latent bug in dhclient/dhcpd that caused it to be unable to
349: enumerate interfaces was fixed. The bug began to cause
350: problems after 20070911 when the kernel's SIOCGIFCONF
351: implementation was repaired. From 20070529 to 20070911 racoon
352: could not enumerate interfaces. (These are noted because
353: normal kernel/userspace version matching hygiene is not
354: sufficient to avoid this problem.) Ensure that both kernel
355: and userland are from after 20070913.
356:
1.163 joerg 357: 20070703:
1.199 dholland 358: nbinstall has been renamed ${MACHINE_GNU_ARCH}-install. It
359: calls the target-specific strip program, and the logic to pass
360: down STRIP from make has been removed. This requires a
361: re-installation of tools.
1.163 joerg 362:
1.161 dsl 363: 20070422:
364: The way OS emulations lookup filenames inside the emulation root
365: has been changed. Rather than modify the pathname (and copy back
366: to userspace) namei() and lookup() directly check the emulation
367: root. One side effect is that absolute symlinks inside the emulated
1.167 wiz 368: root file system will be relative to that file system - unless they
1.161 dsl 369: start /../ this is useful when the emulated root is a real install
370: that has such links.
371: This might affect symlinks that have been added to reference outside
372: the emulated root.
373:
1.160 jmcneill 374: 20070412:
375: The pckbc driver on sgimips IP32 has been removed. Use macekbc
376: instead. See the GENERIC32_IP3x kernel configuration for an
377: example.
378:
1.159 gdt 379: 20070319:
380: src/lib/libc/Makefile revision 1.129 broke libc and ld.elf_so
381: on many platforms due to incorrect flags settings. If you
382: updated and built after about 20070315, do "nbmake-$arch
383: cleandir" in src/lib/libc and src/libexec/ld.elf_so to force a
384: rebuild of object files that might have been built
385: incorrectly, and ensure that you have at least
386: src/lib/libc/Makefile 1.130.
387:
1.158 dbj 388: 20070210:
389: src/sys/sys/{sa.h,savar.h} were removed.
390: find ${OBJDIR} \( -name .depend -o -name '*.d' \) -print \
391: | xargs egrep -l '/sa.h|/savar.h' | xargs rm
392: will allow dependencies on those files to get get rebuilt
393:
1.157 apb 394: 20070209:
395: The threading model was changed when the newlock2 branch
396: was merged to NetBSD-current. If you boot with a new
397: kernel (version 4.99.10), then you also need a new pthread
398: library (/usr/lib/libpthread.so.0.7). If you boot with
399: an old kernel, then you need the old pthread library
400: (/usr/lib/libpthread.so.0.6). Provided you keep the kernel and
401: the pthread library in sync, old threaded applications should
402: continue to work with an old or new kernel. Note that named(8)
403: is the only threaded application in the base system.
404:
1.154 he 405: 20061214:
406: Following the move of string_to_flags() and flags_to_string()
407: from the bin/ls/ sources to libutil, users doing UPDATE builds
408: will need to do a "make cleandir" in

417: The configure script used in the src/tools/gcc compiler has been
418: changed to indicate that our libc has ssp support built-in and
419: does not depend on -lssp and -lssp-nonshared. You'll need to
420: make clean in src/tools/gcc first to rebuild the compiler.

424: available. Use net.inet{,6}.tcp{,6}.congctl.selected instead.

427: The vt, vidcconsole, kbd, and rpckbd drivers on acorn32 have been
428: withdrawn. Use vidcvideo and pckbd instead. See the GENERIC
429: kernel configuration for an example. X servers from the last
430: few years should cope.

433: MPACPI is no more. We always configure PCI interrupts using ACPI
434: if we have an ACPI kernel. The option MPACPI_SCANPCI has been renamed
435: to ACPI_SCANPCI. Thanks to work from fvdl.

438: socket(2) has changed, and its system call has been versioned.
439: For userlands with the old version of socket(2), make sure that

441: errors will result.

1.1 abs 443: Hints for a more successful build:
444: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1.123 jmc 445: Use build.sh, but do not use its "expert mode":
1.132 jmmv 446: This will automatically build the tools in the
1.123 jmc 447: correct order, and it will keep the tools and the
448: new build products from interfering with the running
449: system. This will allow you to ignore most of the
450: other advice in this file.
1.2 mrg 451: Build a new kernel first:
452: This makes sure that any new system calls or features
453: expected by the new userland will be present. This
454: helps to avoid critical errors when upgrading.
1.1 abs 455: Use object directories:
456: This helps to keep stale object
457: files from polluting the build if a Makefile "forgets"
458: about one. It also makes it easier to clean up after
459: a build. It's also necessary if you want to use the
460: same source tree for multiple machines.
1.123 jmc 461: To use object directories with build.sh:
462: a) invoke build.sh with the "-M" or "-O" options.
463: To use object directories without using build.sh:
1.1 abs 464: a) cd /usr/src ; make cleandir
1.2 mrg 465: b) Add "OBJMACHINE=yes" to /etc/mk.conf
466: c) Add "MKOBJDIRS=yes" to /etc/mk.conf
1.1 abs 467: d) cd /usr/src ; make build
1.2 mrg 468: Note that running "make obj" in a directory will create
469: in obj.$MACHINE directory.
1.1 abs 470: Build to a DESTDIR:
1.123 jmc 471: This helps to keep old installed files (especially libraries)
472: from interfering with the new build.
473: To build to a DESTDIR with build.sh, use the "-D" option.
474: To build to a DESTDIR without using build.sh, set the DESTDIR
475: environment variable before running make build. It should be
476: set to the pathname of an initially empty directory.
477: Problems: if you do not use build.sh, you might need to
478: update critical utilities without using DESTDIR since
479: nothing is executed from what is installed in DESTDIR.
480: (See critical utils, below.)
1.1 abs 481: Build often:
482: This keeps critical utilities current enough to not choke
483: on any other part of the source tree that depends on up to
1.123 jmc 484: date functionality. If you use build.sh, you should not have
485: this problem.
1.1 abs 486:
487: What to do if things don't work:
488: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1.230 tls 489: When things don't work there are usually a few things that commonly
1.1 abs 490: should be done.
491: 1) make includes
492: This should be done automatically by make build.
493: 2) cd share/mk && make install
494: Again, automatically done by make build.
495:
496: Failsafe rebuild of a small part of the tree:
497: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
498: To make sure you rebuild something correctly you want to do
499: something like the following:
500: 1) Make sure the includes and .mk files are up to date.
501: 2) Make sure any program used to build the particular
502: utility is up to date. (yacc, lex, etc...)
503: 3) cd ...path/to/util...
504: make cleandir
505: rm ...all obj directories...
506: make cleandir # yes, again
507: make obj
508: make depend && make
509:
510: Failsafe rebuild of the entire tree:
511: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
512: If you really want to make sure the source tree is clean and
1.2 mrg 513: ready for a build try the following. Note that sourcing /etc/mk.conf
514: (a make(1) Makefile) in this manner is not right, and will not work
515: for anyone who uses any make(1) features in /etc/mk.conf.
